Tbh, I'm all for this for most common disputes. The justice system where I'm from is so bloated and corrupt that even when damage was done to you in 90% you're better off not suing than engaging in a multi-decade process.

The issue is that the algorithms the AI depend on are also made by people, and thus will continue to have some biases. An AI could work as a tool for the justice system, but it can't depend on it.

That’s not the right way for it to be implemented. Any and all judgements should be handed down by a human, but supporting evidence and prior cases used as precedence for sentencing can be brought forward by an AI that recognizes similarities. Using an AI for judgement isn’t gonna fly (it might in China, but the western world won’t go for it)

Humans operate entirely off of internal biases. Humans are just as prone to making bad decisions, if not more.

I'm in favour of it, too, up to a certain point. Study after study has shown how sentencing is affected by the age and background of the offender, or whether the judge has eaten recently or is just having a bad day.

Plus, i like the thought of being able to pump in the details of a crime first, so i can accurately decide if it's worth the risk.

I was thinking more on simple cases with fines, like land dispute, tenant eviction, basic contract infringement. Absolutely not violent crime etc.
